This paper describes the results of initial experiments to apply computational algorithms to explore a large parameter space containing many variables in the search for an optimal solution for the sustainable design of an urban development using a potentia ...
We present an extension of a classical data management subproblem, the page migration. The problem is investigated in dynamic networks, where costs of communication between different nodes may change with time. We construct asymptotically optimal online al ...
These lecture notes study the Rouquier blocks (i.e. the families of characters) of the cyclotomic Hecke algebras. The families of characters are determined for all irreducible complex reflection groups, including algorithms for this determination. ...
The YaQ software platform is a complete system dedicated to real-time crowd simulation and rendering. Fitting multiple application domains, such as video games and VR, YaQ aims to provide efficient algorithms to generate crowds comprising up to thousands o ...

In this thesis, we study methods to detect, localize and overcome performance problems experienced by end-users in communication networks. These problems are extremely difficult to solve when the only available information are end-to-end data. We first con ...
In modern distributed systems, failures are the norm rather than the exception. In many cases, these failures are not benign. Settings such as the Internet might incur malicious (also called Byzantine or arbitrary) behavior and asynchrony. As a result, and ...
This paper describes an algorithm for distributed acoustic navigation for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs). Whereas typical AUV navigation systems utilize pre-calibrated arrays of static transponders, our work seeks to create a fully mobile network of ...
In the efficient social choice problem, the goal is to assign values, subject to side constraints, to a set of variables to maximize the total utility across a population of agents, where each agent has private information about its utility function. In th ...
We consider sliding window query execution scheduling in stream processing engines. Sliding windows are an essential building block to limit the query focus at a particular part of the stream, based either on value count or time ranges. These so called sli ...
Graph theory is an important topic in discrete mathematics. It is particularly interesting because it has a wide range of applications. Among the main problems in graph theory, we shall mention the following ones: graph coloring and the Hamiltonian circuit ...
